SUMMARY

1. During the reporting period the LIANCHOR leftist
writer press service produced 35 individual articles and
serialized political feature articles which were distributed
‘to 20 newspapers throughout Latin America and are known to
have been published regularly by at least 12 newspapers.

Despite this acceptable production rate, the project has not

achieved the objectives set for it by the Mexico Station and
in the Project Outline.

2. Prior to submission of a project renewal request in
late June, 1968, the Mexico Station will attempt to convert
the LIANCHOR operation into a more effective and politically

‘more leftist operation. Four of,six LIANCHOR press service
writers will be dropped and P/A(LINLUCK)will be replaced,
hopefully by Identity-1, a respectedlindependent leftist
Mexican editorialist for the prestige center-left daily
"EXCELSIOR". If by the end of June, 1968, the operational

OPERATIONAL DEVELOPMENTS

4. Formal Organization of LIANCHOR Press Service:

a. The Reference "A" project proposal reports all
significant incidents in the development of the
LIANCHOR press service by' (LINLUCK and the Mexico +
tation through the first week o December, 1967, when

ol LINLUCK)set about bringing together the candidates for
fembership in the cooperative press service. As Head-
quarters will recall the project, involved paying a |
salary of U.S. $700 per month ta dincuck )in return for
which he was to persuade a number of leftist and center-
left writers to join together as contributors to the
LIANCHOR (Identity-2) press service. The contributing
writers or members of the press service were to agree
to waive fees for a trial period during which the press
service was to develop paying clients among Latin
American newspapers and periodicals.

5. The Search for a Replacement for P/A(LINLUCK:

of 1966.” He spent much of his termination bonus on
sending his family back to France (the wife is French) :
and setting the family up there in an apartment and plac-
ing his sons in school. Following the termination, INLUCK
was again placed on salary while WOFIRM subsized the~ *

in South America accepted the book but would not send
| GINLUCK) his share of the sales, wiich was to be used
‘to repay WOFIRM the cogt of publishing the book, in
the late fall of 196% (LINLUCK) spent six weeks in
Guatemala where he reached agreements with the Guate~
malan Defense Minister, Rafael ARRIAGA Bosque, whereby
the Defense Ministry was to pay LINLUCK U.S. $4,000
for the right to publish 10,000%copies of, his first
book. The U.S. $4,000 was to be paid by, LINLUCK) to
WOFIRM as partial reimbursement of the costs of pub-
lishing the JMROD book. During the visit to Guatemala,
ol (LINLUCK) was told by ARRIAGA and other Guatemalan
. government officials that he couli expect a consular
appointment by the summer of 1965.

bv. Headquarters and the Mexico Station were agreed
that as soon as he could organize LIANCHOR and find a
suitable replacement” (LINLUCK should be terminated and
leave Mexico. Following the’receipt of the LIANCHOR
project approval in early 1968, the LIANCHOR case officer
told, (LINLUCK) that he was expected to find a replacement
meeting WOFIRM approval and be ready to turn the opera-
tion over to his replacement by the end of March, 1968,
o((LINLUCK) proposed: Identity-4, who had shown the most
intérest in the LIANCHOR press service and had been the
first to submit articles. By accident the case officer
was forced to. listen to an hour's conversation between °
Identity-4 and,LINLUCK Jafter Identity-4 came to (LINLUCK's
home, interrupted a meeting between the case officer and
ol CLINLUCR) and the case officer sat trapped in a separate
room uibeknownst to Identity-4. From the conversation
the case officer observed that Identity-4 was actually a
political rightist, believed LINLUCK)to be an LNHARP
agent, had grandiose plans #ds using’ LNHARP funds to
mushroom LIANCHOR into a continent-wide anti-Communist
movement and was married to a neurotic woman who had
hired a private detective agency to check on her husband's
activities | (LINLUCK) was instructed to quietly ease
Identity-4 out of LIANCHOR, to cease holding group neet=-
ings of LIANCHOR writers and to try to prevent further
contact between Identity-4 and other members of LIANCHOR.

c.d|Identity~5 was selected as the next candidate to
replace (LINLUCK\as P/A. Identity-5 was technically,
linguistically, intellectually and professionally well
qualified to head LIANCHOR. During the period of develop-—
ment and assessment of Identity-4 by (LINLUCK)oltdentity-5
wrote an excellent article on Soviet intelléctual piracy.
However, Identity-5 proved difficult to contact and
control and turned out to be leading a personal life
which would have detracted seriously from his ability
to administer LIANCHOR ( (LINLUCK) was told to keep in —
touch with Identity-5, but to look for still another
candidate.

d. In early April ARRIAGA squé’ was exiled to Miami,
With the Station's concurrence (LINLUCK\went to Guatemala
. during Easter to confer with Guatemalan President, Julio
. MENDEZ Montenegro, and the new Defense Minister concern-
ing his own future wo} The President said he had not
forgotten (LINLUGK) but would not-be able to give him a
os consular post until the outset of 1969. The President

6. Upon (LINLUCK "s return to Mexico .he asked Phether

there was any possibility that he could be kept on after
30 June 1968 for an indeterminate period as LIANCHOR P/A
until some outside job showed up. The case officer gaid
he would discuss the matter with Headquarters, but felt: ~.
that in the interests of (LINLUCK ‘h family and his own: ,
career it was high time’that (LINLUCK @trike out on his own.
Replacements were again reviewed and it was decided that ,
the best candidate would be Identity-1, who had turned °
down membership iin LIANCHOR because he wanted immediate

fees for anything he wrote. Identity-6 of the LIANCHOR
group, a friend of Identity-1, war queried as to Identity-1's
personal life and, as far as can be discovéred, Identity-1
lives a quiet life with his wife and family and is highly
respected in Mexican intellectual circles both as an author/
editorialist and as an independent leftist. Reference "B"
and "PLANS" below report the Station's plans for possible
recruitment and subsequent utilizrtion of Identity-1 as

P/A of LIANCHOR.

7. Cimcvew Involvement in Covert Action Operations Targetted
Against Soviet Poet Yevgenyl YEVTUSHENKO (March-April 1968):

re)

a, In March (inten) drafted an open letter to Soviet
poet Yevgenyi YEVTUSHENKO asking the Russian to use his
influence to persuade the Soviet government to-end the
persecution of Soviet intellectuals, artists, writers and

- poets .o| LINLUCK managed to obtain the signatures of stu-
dents, professors, actors, dancers, writers and intellec-
tuals for his open letter and then persuaded the publisher
of his books to print thousands of copies, which were
distributed by other assets of the Mexico Station. A
copy of the open letter was published in "EXCELSIOR" on
the day of YEVTUSHENKO's arrival in Mexico for what was
originally billed as a personal trip. Because of the
open letter and critical press. coverage of YEVTUSHENKO 's
rude behavior towards the press on arriving at Mexico
City airport, the Russian Eubassy called a special press
conference the evening of the day of the poet's arrival.
At the press conference YEVTUSHENKO spoke with outrage
of the open letter, carefully dodging a number of questions
asked by the letter, and chided the signers of the letter
for claiming there was absolute literary freedom in Mexico,
asking how there can be freedom anywhere in the world as
long as there is no freedom in Vietnam, YEVTUSHENKDO 's
remarks about the open letter left no doubt that he had
come to Mexico as a Soviet propagandist and not as a rebel
poet, a

b. Cinvuck) also produced a handbill quoting the
telegram by Soviet intellectuals to the "Consultative
“Conference of Communist Parties" at Budapest, asking for
an end to Soviet persecution of intellectuals in the USSR.
The handbill featured two pen and ink drawings of imprisoned
Soviet poets Sinyavsky and Daniel. He also arranged for
the printing in Spanish of an authoritative study of inci-
dents surrounding the Galanskov-Dobrovolsky trial in

ing and distribution were charged to LILISP-X.

ol

c. Via Identity-4 (LINLU K) passed guidance material
to Mexico's top female poet, Margarita MICHELENA,
‘concerning YEVTUSHENKO. MICHELENA published a series
of professional criticisms of YEVTUSHENKO as a poor” ,
poet and opportunist in the Mexican press. In April, .
immediately following YEVTUSHENK)'s departure, & con-
densation of the MICHELENA criti ques of YEVTUSHENKO were
published in the leftist political illustrated magazine
"IMPACTO" by LILISP-E.—

d. Identities 3 and 6 of the LIANCHOR group also
published articles against YEVTUSHENKO in the rightist
daily "EL SOL", but the Station felt the articles were
too vitriolic ani unobjective to be a credit to LIANCHOR.
In fact, because of these articles the Station plans to
remove both Identities 3 ana 7 from LIANCHOR; for it is
obvious that both persons have long since lost all traces

"

of their former leftism and are extreme rightists.

EFFECT IVENESS .

‘ 8. Views on LIANCHOR Effectiveness by Owner/Director of
Guatemala Dally "EL IMPARCIAL”:

ce)
a, During Lintuck’a) Easter visit to Guatemala City

oo he was told by the owner of “EL IMPARCIAL" that the of

newspaper was only interested in publishing LINLUCK's

articles. The newspaper owner stated that (L NLUCK )was

a well-known personality in Guatemala and also wroté

interestingly. The owner also said that he had pub-

lished one series by Identity-4 because Identity-4 was

a Guatemalan who at one time had been important. However,

the owner pointed out that the other LIANCKOR writers

were unknowns and did not write well. He singled out

Identity-3 as being a "menace to journalism” because much

of what she wrote amounted to libel or slander.

b. The "EL IMPARCIAL" owner said that he received
the newspapers "EL DIA" of Honduras, "LA PRENSA GRAFICA"
of El Salvador, "LA PRENSA" of Nicaragua, "LA REPUBLICA" .
of Costa Rica, "LA ESTRELLA" of Panama and "ULTIMAS
NOTICIAS" of Caracas and had noted that these newspapers
all published INLUCK 's) articles but had not, to his
knowledge, published articles by any of the other LIANCHOR
writers.

; - re)
c. When (LINLUCK) explained the coo erative! nature of
-LIANCHOR, the "EL IMPARCIAL" man told (LINLUCK) that he -
could never hope to collect fees for his news service .
until the service became both famous and sought after.
The "EL IMPARCIAL" owner advised (LINLUCK to find writers
tter known in Latin America. °'He suggested that if.
ol LINLUCK) could not afford to pay his writers fees, he
should’persuade first class writers to contribute to
. LIANCHOR purely for the prestige of having their material

In addition? (INLUCK) learaed that persons he had

b. The personalities and cbaracter,,of some of the
writers have presented problems to (LINLUCK in directing
and developing the LIANCHOR group into,a productive unit.
Identities 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8 had jo be goaded continually
by ILINLUCK)to turn in manuscripts on assigned themes.
BothgIdentity-3 and Identity-7 turned out to be emotional
extremists, suffering at times from deep melancholy and
at other times from inexplainable rages which were re-
flected in their writings. As of this writing the Station
feels that the only reliable members of the group are
Identities 6 and 9, who should be kept as members of the
group as long as LIANCHOR is run as a group cooperative
press service, The unreliable but brilliant and versatile |
poet/writer/lexicographer Identity-5 should be continued
as a contact of LIANCHOR for occasional emergency use
provided(LINLUCK' replacement can obtain any cooperation
from Identity-5.°| In summary the LIANCHOR group composed
of Identities 3, 4, 5, 7 and 8 has proved ineffective and.

not too productive and the ineffective members should be

After the. agent dusted off and mailed out several of his

_old article series in December 1968 the case officer
instructed, (LINLUCK) to reduce his production in ratio to
the manuséripts of other LIANCHOR writers which were

he has had experience in handling people, he has not

FINANCE AND SUPPORT

b. If Identity-1l rejects recruitment, the next candi-
date for LIANCHOR chief is Identity-10, who has already
toid @IN.UCK)that he is prepared to take over LIANCHOR
on a pro o\.ionary. basis to see whether it will enhance his
reputatio.. The Station feels that Identity-10 would be
easier to recruit than Identity-1, However, Identity-10
is not too well known in Mexico and is totally unknown
abroad. One of Identity-10's virtues is the-fact that he
never formally quit the Communist Party and has done nothing
to irritate the Party. As economic and general reporter for
"EXCELSIOR" he offers placement potential, If Identity-1
does accept recruitment, the Station still intends to try
to recruit Identity-10 as a singleton under Project LIANCHOR,
possibly steering Identity-10 to Identity-1 and the LIANCHOR
press service after due consideration. The Station is also
interested in the possibility of recruiting Identity-10 in
order to send him to the World Youth ‘Festival at. Sofia, ;
since it is believed by!(LINLUCK) that Identity-1 still has
access to some worthwhilé contacts in Central. American
young Communist circles. a

a. It is estimated that it will not cost over U.S.
$200 to hire clipping services in Buenos Aires, Montevideo,
Santiago and Bogota for a three month trial period to test
whether newspapers which receive LIANCHOR material in those
cities are publishing the LIANCHOR material, The clipping
services will be asked to watch for articles with the
LIANCHOR by-line, the by-lines of LIANCHOR writers and the
headlines or titles which are assigned by LIANCHOR to the
articles mailed to the newspapers. oO

be. If the clipping service tests show: that newspapers
or periodicals in two of the above cited countries are
publishing LIANCHOR material, Station will continueto.
pursue the development of a small and responsive leftist
writer group as one phase of the LIANCHOR operation. The
rationale behind this decision is that there is little
justification in operating a press service, even a cheap
one, with a readership limited to Mexico, Central America,
Venezuela and Bolivia. However, if the press service can
acquire, or has acquired, readership in any two of the
countries in 16-a above then it is felt that the total
areu coverage is significant and worth maintaining.
